UK-based private equity firm Helios Investment Partners Ltd has taken over Kenya’s sole fixed line operator Telkom Kenya Ltd even as key shareholder issues remain unresolved.
Sources privy to the deal told The EastAfrican that the British investors will be pursuing a strategy of infrastructure sharing in a bid to cut costs, enhance margins and hasten the speed of their network rollout.
